Centerpiece
Think of this table topper as a free-form cornucopia. Matthew arranged pillar candles on an antique tole-painted tray, then filled in the spaces with apples in assorted sizes and shades of gold and red; grapes; fresh variegated pittosporum, along with its vibrant orange berries; and dried white tallow berries. Total assembly time: about 5 minutes. Keep it on the table until the turkey is served. The tray is easily moved as needed.
